1. Wealth is an orchard of one with faults; if it comes his way,
He is praised, and if he misses the path, he is excused.

2. A man guards against what opposes him,
And schemes regarding what he did not guard against.

3. A man is praised that he meets his fortune,
Fate, and is fair in that which he did not determine.

4. People are enemies of every empty-handed one,
And brothers of the abundant.

5. If a man among people is not knowing the custom,
He will not deny the wrong.
